March 13, 200916 yr However, I much prefer Georgie's version of "Point of no return" to Gene McDaniels. Nick ...which Georgie got from Louis Jordan's fantastic version on Tangerine (he even freely admits to nicking the LJ 45 out of sound system operator Count Suckle's record box so that he and the Blue Flames could copy the arrangement...)
March 13, 200916 yr No mistaking which is Billy though! Sean thats what happens when u sit in the park instead of running
March 14, 200916 yr I've read The Zombies did it on the BBC and it's on their box set Zombie Heaven. Yes The Zombies version is my absolute favourite! The reason is that this is a perfect pop song and that Colin Blundstone has the perfect pop voice! Unfortunately their version has a very bad sound quality but maybe that just makes it even more charming? And by the way I saw them the other week. First time they visited Sweden for 45 years and the first concert I've payed for to go to in almost 10 years. Edited March 14, 200916 yr by B Nilsson
